TA is installed but Spring ?

[kcalahan]

hello the TA lovers,

I am a new member, and i love TA, my Nickname is , (as you see) KCALAHAN, as Harry Calahan. with K, for fun ! (stupid i am !!!) :-)

I have TA in my Pc, ok, the CC and BT ok, the path 3.1 for fix WinXP is ok.

But now, i want to play with Spring, and first with spring SP, no way, it not working at all, the windows are badly colored, ...error messages.....bizzare.

I have to be clear, so look at the setup tips in this page :

quickstart.zjt3.com/chapter1.htm

They say this :
" You'll be presented with some things to download. Pick up the regular installer (technically you need a copy of the original Total Annihilation in order to legally use this, but somehow I doubt you'll listen to us anyway ¬_¬). Since we're here anyway, pick up SpringSP as well, it makes starting a game much easier."

But my question is this, do i need the TA folder to get Spring ?
do Spring work on my windows only if TA is in there ?
.....I don't understand.....Spring is a engine that run alone, no need for the old TA ?

lot of confusion....



Any help ! ?
